As far as I can tell, this triggers unconditional use of the
.of_match_table, and the compiler will have a harder time dropping
that data. However, the wasted data is negligible for the parts
touching "my" drivers:

drivers/i2c/muxes/i2c-mux-ltc4306.c
drivers/i2c/muxes/i2c-mux-reg.c
drivers/mux/adg729a.c
